How Things Work: 1942

April 1942. De Land, Florida, machine shop pool. "Aircraft construction class. These carefree high school students are learning the serious business of war production in a Daytona Beach vocational school located in a revamped nightclub. Instructor Gil Angell (with piston in his hand) is showing the group how to assemble an airplane engine. Left to right are Wilson Flippo, Angell, Dewey Stewart, 19; Ken Kirkpatrick, 18; Bill Jackson and Ned Brown, 18. Jobs already are waiting for most of them when they finish their courses."
